Dear friends of Substantiv,

I hope this message finds you well.
Has it really been a year since I last sent an update?... I guess we've been busy! Here are just a few of the projects that we have been involved with since our last update:

www.solutionsforourfuture.org
www.studybuddy.com
www.dancemetrodc.org
www.fcmlcc.org
www.pilatesbodyandsoul.com
www.communitybridges-md.org

Also, we continue to provide full-time content management and web services to the American Council on Education (www.acenet.edu). One of our current goals is to find a way to offer this service to more associations.

Last month, we launched a refreshed Substantiv website which includes a new portfolio of our work. It has a Movable Type backend, which makes for easy updates (and makes my geeky side very happy.)

In March, I went to South By Southwest Interactive in Austin Texas (www.sxsw.com). It was good to meet up with some former co-workers, and old friends. Oh yeah, and to learn some stuff too! Web technology still feels like magic to me, so I always come away from experiences like that even more inspired by my job and the industry in which I work.

I can't believe it has been two years since I first registered the domain substantiv.com, and left the nine-to-five world for the crazy life of running my own business. It is unpredictable and I have had to learn a lot really quickly, but I'm having such a great time doing it.

None of it would be possible without the support of great clients and friends like you.

Best wishes from,

Eileen, and the team at Substantiv
